Chapter 586 I Like You Anyway

Kathy was surprised that the rumors about her and Sonny had spread at her university.

When she returned to school on Monday, she was naturally put in the spotlight as she gathered
together with her classmates.

Although Kathy and Joseph were close to each other, Kathy always deliberately kept a distance from
Joseph in public, so no one had detected their true relationship.

The news that Kathy and Sonny were a perfect match had gone viral, which embarrassed Kathy a lot.

So, when Sonny came to the classroom, he attracted everyone's attention too.

"Don't talk nonsense. We are just classmates." Kathy, who sat in the corner, couldn't help defending
herself.

Some of her close classmates gathered around her and blinked ambiguously at Kathy, "Is Sonny going
after you?"

Kathy pursed her lips. Just as she was about to deny it, here came Sonny's voice, "Guys, I am indeed
going after her, but Kathy hasn't said yes yet. Please stop talking about it. She needs more space."

Sonny's words shocked everyone in the classroom.

Since his research turned out to be a great success, Sonny had become super popular at the
University F for his handsome face and academic achievements. Many girls had a crush on him.

So Sonny's claim that he was chasing Kathy upset many girls. However, Sonny's profession didn't
undermine their affection for him at all. Instead, they admired him even more.

But Kathy was greatly shocked.



She had already known that Sonny liked her, but Kathy felt very uncomfortable about his profession of
love in front of their teachers and classmates.

Moreover, she had never intended to say yes to him.

She didn't look at Sonny, but looked at the book absent-mindedly. Then, Sonny sat down beside her.

Their classmates around them took other seats to leave them some space.

"Sonny, how could you say that?" Kathy frowned and said discontentedly.

"I'm sorry for having bothered you. I thought that was a good idea," Sonny said in a deep voice.

Kathy remained silent, not knowing how to respond.

Sonny did clean the air by doing so, but ... how would Joseph feel?

With this question in her mind, she took out her phone but found no calls or messages from Joseph.

After taking the course absently, Kathy asked for a leave from her research project and came to
Joseph's office.

However, Zofia stopped her at the door and said, "Professor Joseph is having a meeting. You might
have to wait."

"How much longer will it take?"

"An hour."

"OK, I'll wait."



Kathy looked indifferent. Zofia looked at her for a while and coldly said, "Looks like you enjoy two-
timing."

Kathy frowned. She knew that Zofia was alluding to the rumors about her and Sonny, but Kathy didn't
want to waste time on it.

"Now that you're dating Professor Joseph, why don't you just cherish him wholeheartedly?"

Zofia's blame displeased Kathy. She said indifferently, "Aren't you happy about that?"

Zofia was surprised. She didn't expect Kathy to talk back like this.

As far as she could remember, Kathy was gentle and obedient and had never been so hostile to others.

"Of course, I'm happy, but I don't want Professor Joseph to be unhappy," Zofia muttered.

"Don't worry. I believe Professor Joseph has the ability to distinguish right from wrong." She didn't think
that Joseph would believe the rumors on the Internet.

That was the truth. Actually, Joseph did not even notice them.

When Kathy walked into the office, Zofia followed in, which made she feel a little uncomfortable.

Only when Joseph asked Zofia to deliver the documents did Joseph and Kathy have the chance to stay
alone in the office.

"Looks like you two stay together every day." Kathy seemed a bit jealous.

Joseph curled his thin lips and said, "Do you think I would waste my time on Zofia?"

"Who knows?" Kathy sat down on the sofa beside him and looked at Joseph. She wanted to say
something, but the words just wouldn't come out of her mouth.



"Something on your mind?" Joseph undid a button of his shirt, revealing his Adam's apple that moved
up and down, which made him look hot.

"Did you see the news about Sonny and me?"

Joseph frowned and shook his head.

He didn't care about gossip at all. He even only read financial news occasionally.

"Let me show you." Kathy handed her phone to him.

Instead of letting Joseph know the rumors himself, she might as well take the initiative to tell him what
had happened.

She stared at Joseph, only to find that he remained calm.

"I've expected this," Joseph said calmly.

He had warned Kathy before.

Kathy pursed her lips and did not say anything.

"Today, Sonny clarified that he is courting me. Professor Joseph, does that distress you?" Kathy
suddenly smiled.

There was another man courting her!

"No," Joseph replied directly.

Disappointed, she pouted and muttered, "Are you so sure that I won't say yes to other men?"

"Yes, I'm sure." Joseph nodded calmly.



...

"Well, I like you anyway." Kathy blushed.

Joseph walked over, locked the door, gently pushed Kathy onto the wall, and held the back of her head
to give her a French kiss.

He always surprised her.

Kathy hugged him and licked his lips. Joseph's eyes darkened with passion.

"Kathy, don't tease me."

He couldn't control himself.

Kathy smiled craftily and pushed Joseph away at once to keep a distance from him.

Joseph smiled helplessly. He didn't want any more intimacies with her in the office in the daytime.

But he was easily turned on by Kathy.

In the afternoon, Kathy intended to go to Boston Hospital with Joseph, but as soon as they came out of
the office, some girls who admired Joseph came up.

The rumors between Kathy and Sonny had gone viral. However, soon after that, someone revealed
that Kathy was Joseph's girlfriend. The news was surfacing all over the Internet.

Actually, Kathy's relationship with Joseph had been revealed before. However, Joseph suppressed the
news quickly. Later, they got divorced. The fan club knew all about that, but many students in University
F were new fans of Joseph who thought that Joseph was still single. Due to the rumors about Kathy's
relationship with Sonny and Joseph, the news that Kathy was a two-timer was overwhelming online.



"Professor Joseph, are you dating Kathy?"

"Kathy, tell me, you are not dating Professor Joseph, right?" A few female students came up, their eyes
filled with infatuation for Joseph.

Kathy frowned, somewhat unhappy.

Now that Joseph was her teacher, she would not admit their relationship at her university.

"Yes, Professor Joseph is just my teacher," Kathy said calmly.

But at the same time, she could clearly feel that Joseph was displeased.

What was wrong with him?

Kathy didn't think she had said something wrong.
